Disaster Waste Management Mechanism: A Practical Guide for Construction and Demolition Wastes in Indonesia

This publication is a practical guide to assist decision makers in national and local government agencies in Indonesia to understand the issue of disaster waster management. It outlines the development of a waste management mechanism that facilitates the development of local strategies on waste issues, bringing together knowledge and experience on existing and ongoing work on waste and debris clean up. It specifically looks at the issue of construction and demolition waste, and addresses the following issues:
- How demolition wastes can be collected, including clearing of debris, building slated for demolition, and foundations of buildings that need to be cleared before reconstruction can begin.
- How demolition and building/construction debris can be treated in order to make in reuseable - in what from and for what purposes.

This publication is part of the EU funded Asia Pro Eco II B Projectentitled ”Tsunami Waste Management: Demonstrating ESTs for Building waste Reduction in Indonesia“– The DEBRI Project.
